If you’ve tried our juicy Gesha from Aristóbulo Rayo, the name Rayo will sound familiar. And since the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, we return to this family once again with a coffee from his son, Alex Rayo. Both share the same humility, patience, and respect for the land and that’s exactly what we love about their coffee.
Story of the farm and station
Alex Rayo is the son of Aristóbulo Rayo, a farmer whose story of courage and perseverance you may already know from his Gesha. Both are active members of the Colombian specialty coffee scene.
Alex combines what he learned from his father with new approaches and a precision that sets him apart.
He is a member of the Arte y Pasión Cafetera association, which connects producers to share knowledge, improve skills, and elevate the quality of specialty coffee across the region.
When we met Alex in person, we saw in him the same philosophy that first drew us to Aristóbulo, honesty, calm, and deep respect for both nature and craft.
Processing
The cherries are hand-picked at full ripeness and undergo a 12–14 hour oxidation phase to enhance their aroma.
They are then depulped and fermented for 35 hours in open tanks, washed twice with clean water, and slowly dried for 10–15 days in parabolic solar dryers, depending on the weather.
Alex carefully oversees every step of the process with the same patience and precision he grew up with.
The result is an exceptionally clean, floral cup.
Variety
Gesha is a legendary variety originally from Ethiopia, celebrated for its floral aroma, complex flavor, and remarkable elegance.
In the hands of Alex Rayo from Colombia’s Cauca region, it reveals refined sweetness, purity, and precision, highlighting the natural brightness and balance of this exceptional variety.
